Hi everyone. Well, let’s see if this works. I’ve already tried three times to make this video. Four times if you count the time on my iPhone. Anyway, I had a great weekend, made it very clear going to one webinar that I don’t want an agent, a literary agent, because their values are completely at odds with mine. At least this one agent.
Having discerned that, I went to another video webinar where we talked about self-care, which was much more helpful than listening to this agent yammer on about algorithms.

Hi. Yeah. It’s been a long time since I’ve actually talked about what I’m doing. Okay. What am I doing these days? I just finished work on the third Erica Jensen mystery, which I hope will come out on May, whenever Memorial Day is. Don’t even know. Yeah, end of May, sometime around then. Around Memorial Day. And what else am I doing? Oh yeah, I’m trying to get a production meeting together for the second film that I’m going to be directing because as you may know, those of you who might actually pay attention to what I’m saying or read what I write, I do screenwriting now and have been doing that for quite a while, it feels like. Actually, it feels like a short time, but it’s been quite a while actually. I shudder to think of how much time has passed while I’ve been doing this because I got to tell you, screenwriting is no easy path to take and has become even less easy with the passage of time and the contraction of the industry.

Everyone talks about the writer’s journey. But what about the mission? Why do you want to write?
Well, after being forced to listen to a wehinar that I actually benefited from, I wrote this mission statement. So, here it is then.
